Default New Pump for the Racing Jug

I have owned a Jersey Modeler fueler ever since I got into turbines and have always loved it. But eventually, I got old and lazy and tired of transferring the Jet A I buy at the airport from the racing jugs to the fueler. So I got to talking to Dean of JM, and next thing you know, I have a new JM unit designed for racing jugs.

I drop the oil in the jugs before I head to the airport to fill them up so everything is premixed ... when a jug runs dry, I just move the unit and cap to a new jug ... takes about 30 seconds .... and away I go.

Thanks Dean!

What a great idea. I do the same thing, store my fuel in racing jugs and transfer it to the low boy. I may just need to get me one of them there!

Keith,

Any reason you didn't have the fuel spout plug back in to the top of the cap instead of plugging in to that fuel tubing extension?

Yeah, the cap's design isn't conducive to fitting two full size docks in it.

Hey, I tried to return your call the other day .... if you still need to chat, give me a shout tomorrow.

How about a fourteen gallon fuel jug?
It is pretty large and heavy, so it is better suited for a trailer than a van or car.
